I like no2 best, I 've not seen these around yet - I am high up in by Yorkshire Pennines so later in season.

I had a go at taking pics last year and had some success, I used a G3 and had a stick potruding where focus was and if got them in range snapped them - used a lot of shots that day :lol:

Yeah i used manual focus to take these.I just kept adjusting the focus until he looked clear :cool:
